Design a mathematical model to inform and solve a practical or abstract situation. Requires an investigation, time to think and process multiple conditions of the problem. Most on-demand assessments will not include Level 4 activities. Making value judgments about the method.”

Norman Webb’s Depth-of-Knowledge (DOK) schema has become one of the key tools educators can employ to analyze the cognitive demand (complexity) intended by the standards, curricular activities, and assessment tasks.

Conduct basic mathematical calculations. Label locations on a map. Represent in words or diagrams a scientific concept or relationship. Perform routine procedures like measuring length or using punctuation marks correctly. Describe the features of a place or people. Identify and summarize the major events in a narrative.

As you’ll soon see below in depth, there are four DoK levels: Recall; Knowledge application; Strategic thinking; Extended thinking; Referencing DoK levels should help you create an engaging classroom environment, filled with distinct thinking and learning experiences.
